Cross-posted from "Threativore can now keep your blocklist in sync with your Fediseer censures" by @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com in !lemmy_integrations@lemmy.dbzer0.com


The new release of Threativore adds Fediseer integration. It will allow you to keep your instance blocklist in sync with your fediseer censures. Not only that but the integration can be as fine-grained as you want, supporting collating multiple instance censures, filtering only censures with tags you want, or only censures collaborated by 1+ other instances etc.

Check out the usage manual for all the variables allowed.

For people who only want some basic protection, the default settings will by default protect you from all CSAM and bigoted instances as tagged by lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.world and lemmings.world. This should provide a good initial blocklist even if you don't populate fediseer yourself Bbut you can of course mix&match according to your needs.

This integration also prevents too many changes happening at one go in your blocklist. If threativore detects too many changes about to happen, it will ask for admin approval via DM before proceeding.

This sync will run every 10 minutes, so if you're following the censures of other instances and they discover a new bad actor, you'll be almost immediately protected, thus converting a fediverse weakness (information distribution) into a strength (information collaboration).

Let me know if you wish to see any improvements.

Alt text: Year is 2050. In the ruins of a city robots surround a human. One of them says "Wait, this person says thank you every time they use ChatGPT. Spare him."

Other robot says "No, by saying thank you he is wasting resources for the server to reply" and punches the human in the face.

I was thinking about this today. Where there stories in the past where the magic world and the normal world separate. The only Olden times stories i know of are myths and religious stories and i don't think those count since people already believed in the magic world, so no reason to say the everyday people where not aware of the magical world(except in cases like religion). I remember watching an OSP video(Trope Talk: Save The World). She talks about how The concept of the world or even a world being a modern day thing. People use to live in secluded areas from one another and so had no knowledge of a world, Most stories back than involved saving villages or towns or even islands. In Modern Marvel, all kinds of Magical worlds exist and normal people know of them and still go on about there day(Granted Most of those magical world revealed themselves to in modern time as not fuck up history). That's the only case of i know where both the magical world and the normal world exist side by side with everyday people knowing about them.What are your thoughts?

dbrgn@chaos.social - Here are a few interesting details about the maximally privacy-friendly protocol design:

  • Everything related to synchronization between devices is completely end-to-end encrypted
  • Message recipients do not know from which device a message was sent
  • The Mediator Server of a device group does not know the corresponding Threema ID
  • The Chat Server only sees the IP address of the Mediator Server, but not the IP address of the end devices

Gravity Falls is an American mystery comedy animated television series created by Alex Hirsch for Disney Channel and Disney XD. The series follows the adventures of Dipper Pines (Jason Ritter) and his twin sister Mabel (Kristen Schaal), who are sent to spend the summer with their great-uncle (or "Grunkle") Stan (Hirsch) in Gravity Falls, Oregon, a mysterious town full of paranormal incidents and supernatural creatures. The kids help Stan run the "Mystery Shack", the tourist trap that he owns, while also investigating the local mysteries.

An surprisingly deep show with lots of thoughtful messaging, colorful messages, and a upbeat tone throughout. Cerebral and fun.

At a secret workshop in Ukraine’s north-east, where about 20 people assemble hundreds of FPV (first person view) drones, there is a new design. Under the frame of the familiar quadcopter is a cylinder, the size of a forearm. Coiled up inside is fibre optic cable, 10km (6 miles) or even 20km long, to create a wired kamikaze drone.

Capt Yuriy Fedorenko, the commander of a specialist drone unit, the Achilles regiment, says fibre optic drones were an experimental response to battlefield jamming and rapidly took off late last year. With no radio connection, they cannot be jammed, are difficult to detect and able to fly in ways conventional FPV drones cannot.

“If pilots are experienced, they can fly these drones very low and between the trees in a forest or tree line. If you are flying with a regular drone, the trees block the signal unless you have a re-transmitter close,” he observes. Where tree lined supply roads were thought safer, fibre optic drones have been able to get through.
